“Creative Uses for Spare Corvette Parts” – Vette Magazine

 

Veteran industry writer Steve Temple visited Factory Five and photographed customer Bill F.’s beautiful twin turbo GTM for “Vette Magazine”.  Bill’s car was built by the crew at SKJ Customs in St. George, UT, and to our knowledge, it is the highest horsepower GTM ever built.

Bill’s GTM headlined the Factory Five booth at the 2011 SEMA Show.  “Vette Magazine” profiled Bill’s car as part of an article about creative ways to use spare Corvette parts.

The interior by SKJ is beautiful.  A combination of hand-turned aluminum, custom hand-stitched leather, and flawless fit and finish.
